Since the age of 5, Jan Morehead has had a deep love for dance, especially ballet and ballroom dance. That love has developed into a strong support of dance programs, especially the program at New Mexico State University.

To recognize that love and support for dance and education, Jan Morehead?s husband, former College of Education Dean Michael Morehead, and their family made a gift to the college to have one of the new dance studios at Rentfrow Hall named after Jan Morehead, unbeknownst to her until this spring. Michael Morehead said it was the only time he?s been able to surprise his wife during their 34 years of marriage.

NMSU College of ACES evaluates agricultural science center system

Public concern regarding New Mexico State University potentially closing two agricultural science centers has stimulated the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences to conduct a self-evaluation of the 12 centers around the state.

?At this time we are not closing any centers; that would be the last recourse, but it is on the table,? said College of ACES Dean Rolando A. Flores. ?In a time of low budgets, we need to rationalize and properly manage our resources.?

During visits with the advisory boards at each agricultural science center, Flores explained the evaluation process the college has begun.
